reids Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 .... so, now, back to the subject of the thread.... If Jimmy renames the band, what would be a good name? The Spectacles (all of them could wear glasses)... R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mstork Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 And he would say something along the lines of "Yes, I was a guy reuniting with my former bandmates for a ONE-OFF gig as a tribute to someone we cared about very deeply." His whole mind-set at the 02 was for a one-off reunion and asking him to be that guy again will get us exactly where we are today. I get what you're saying, obviously just viewing it from my perspective. There was nothing cringe-inducing about Roberts performance last December and it's a shame he has a hang up about it. Pete Townshend said before the O2 that Robert shouldn't feel "strange" about it and I agreed with him. But everyone's different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whylie2112 Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 I doubt they'd spend alot of time on a name. My guess is they would just call themselves something pretty plain like Page, Jones, Bonham. Like Page/Plant, Coverdale/Page. I don't think the name is as important as the music.

mic23 Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 Anyone suggested Left Zeppelin yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KEVIN Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 Robert doesn't get any royalties from the sales of Led Zeppelin albums, since he sold the rights in the early 1980s. He said to David Letterman on his show at one point, something about Zeppelin being more rewarding to Jimmy lately. After LZ's performance with Phil Collins in the mid 80s, I'm sure Plant considered his giveaway as being a good Philanthropist. How does selling something make someone a philanthropist ?

bigzepfan Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 How does selling something make someone a philanthropist ? I think the screamer(love that) was mistaken. It was mentioned earlier that Elton John gave away his royalties to charities so he is the philanthropist, not our good man rp. rp sold his.(or I think so anyway).

I only know of one profession that you can "sell" something yet keep using it...... Hint: it's the oldest profession..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Rover Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 I'm not going to read thru 260 replies.... But why do think that Jimmy has exclusive naming rights to the band ? ? ? This is not 1968.... it's 2-0-0-8, and that's all you need to know !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adi Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 no Bonzo and no Percy... the only name that's coming up in my mind is "Led Zeppelin UnLedded" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperDave Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 no Bonzo and no Percy... the only name that's coming up in my mind is "Led Zeppelin UnLedded" But then again, they've used that one already. They may want to be more creative than that. Creativity, spontaneaity were always their things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Rover Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 They could just shoten the name from "LED ZEPPELIN" to: "ZEPPELIN" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reggie29 Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 They could just shoten the name from "LED ZEPPELIN" to: "ZEPPELIN" I admire your persistence but, the Mighty Led Zeppelin has been secured in the hangar. For now......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperDave Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Not sure if Jimmy would go for this, considering the person had a direct association with Aleister Crowley. I think JP would like to distance himself from that image. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bong-Man Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Well, it's no dafter than Led Zeppelin, I suppose. That's the spirit ! Not sure if Jimmy would go for this, considering the person had a direct association with Aleister Crowley. I think JP would like to distance himself from that image. I think the woman in his life made it appear that he was no longer interested in that angle. Now that he's "single", he can again pursue his hobby without worrying about his family image. If he is trying to distance himself, maybe Succubus Music Ltd. should have a new name ? Just a thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
